Question

10.If rupees 1600 is divided among A and B in the ratio of 3:5 then, what is B
share?​

Answer 1

Answer:

B=Rs.1000

Step-by-step explanation:

A+B=1600

Let A=3x

B=5x

3x+5x=1600

8x=1600

x=1600/8

x=200

A=3x=>3*200=600

B=5x=>5*200=1000

Answer 2

Answer:

the ratio of sharing of Rupees = 3:5

let the A's share be 3x

and B's share be 5x

ATQ,

3x+5x = 1600

8x = 1600

x = 1600/8

x = 200

hence, B's share = 5x = 5×200 = Rs.1000
